It helps to know the general context of the war up to that point and shortly afterward. For instance, if you know that the Battle of Britain was about to begin, some of the scenes are a lot more meaningful. Tbh, if you know what a Spitfire is, you'll be fine. I'm a WWII nerd, so I probably overthink this stuff.

Spoiler for Spoiler:
The Churchill speech at the end was a nice touch.

It's when the MC goes full NBA Jam and throws down verses so hard that they literally spit fire.

If he had checked downstream 1/4 mile there was a walking bridge he could have used. If he'd brought a map he would have known it.

Yeah he deluded himself too much with the idea of being 'free'. Should have made a back up plan or checked how he would get out.

Takes courage to wing it like he did though. For two years or so he was living the dream imo.

When he killed that moose he didn't have a fire ready, that was a bit silly, he could have been eating like a king for weeks if he smoked the meat.

Anyone seen this one yet?



It's supposedly this major, record breaking box office flop in the making, but I like Luc Besson, the director and it's based on some old comics that I'd really like to see on the big screen. Tomorrow evening I'll know what I think of it, but I just wondered if anyone here knows if it's really that bad?

Funny you posted that. I went to see it today but halfway through the movie. A storm rolled in and knocked the power out at the theater. I need to rewatch it. I went into that matinee super tired from the heat and dozed off like 30 mins into the film. I enjoyed what I saw so far of it. It was nice to enjoy a sci fi flick on that scale with hints of Fifth Element to it. Worth seeing on the big screen for the visuals alone.

The visuals are exactly what sold it to me when I watched the trailer. It might be refreshing to see a wildly colorful sci-fi movie like that. Next to the more recent big-budget fare, it looks fairly unique.

Also; a violent storm and extreme heat. You seem to have some significantly crazier weather than we're having here right now. 20 degrees celcius +/- 2 degrees, plus a dash of rain here and there and very little wind. Not great summer weather, but I don't think I'd like to trade it with the weather you're having!
